Re 38: A social network is made up of relationships between people, so “Twitter is not a social network” is a bit of an odd statement. Perhaps you meant to say “Twitter is not a social networking site/service”. That is a little debatable- Twitter started out as a microblogging platform, and since evolved into a sort of real-time public information/news utility, yes. But it’s still great for social networking- for making friends, for staying up-to-date with friends, etc.

Completely agree. It’s ok to socialize and connect with people on Twitter. If you or a company are just sending information at me and not responding to questions, people will lose interest in you real quick. That’s why Facebook has lost so much interest. Twitter is a two way conversation. The conversation might be on informative topics, but it’s a two way conversation, nonetheless. Great information and discussion piece. Thank you for the content!
